Absentee Voting > Absentee Ballot

Ohio law provides separate application processes for different classifications of absentee voters (domestic, armed services, overseas, etc.). In all cases, absentee ballots must be applied for in writing. If you are properly registered to vote, you must submit your written request to the Board of Elections of the county in which your voting residence is located. Your request must contain certain information and your original signature. You are required to use an application form prescribed by the Ohio Secretary of State.

Note: Please read all instructions carefully, print the form (the form is an Adobe PDF file), complete and sign it and mail to:

Wayne County Board of Elections
